Synopsis, Summary or DescriptionNext Section

The book The Invisible Art: The Legends of Movie Matte Painting} is on the table

This book delves into the art of movie matte painting, a technique that has been used in films for over a century. Movie matte painting involves creating a painting or image that is used to extend or enhance a filmed scene. The resulting image is then combined with the live-action footage to create a seamless and convincing final shot.

Through interviews with some of the greatest matte painters of all time, the authors explore the history of the craft and highlight some of the most iconic examples of matte painting in film history. They discuss how matte painting has evolved over the years, from the simple background images of early silent movies to the complex and intricate creations seen in modern-day blockbusters.

The book also explores the collaboration that takes place between matte painters and other members of the filmmaking team, such as directors, cinematographers, and visual effects artists. It demonstrates how the work of a matte painter can have a profound impact on the final look and feel of a film, and how the best matte paintings are often the ones that go unnoticed by audiences.

In addition to the interviews and insights from industry experts, The Invisible Art also includes a wealth of images and photographs showing the process of creating matte paintings, from sketching out initial concepts to the final stages of production. The images demonstrate the level of detail and care that goes into each and every matte painting, and how they can transform an ordinary scene into something truly extraordinary.

Overall, The Invisible Art is an essential read for anyone interested in the art and history of filmmaking, and how one seemingly small aspect of a movie can have such a significant impact on the final product. It celebrates the unsung heroes of the film industry and sheds light on an often-overlooked aspect of movie magic.
